Edd Sorenson describes an underwater cave rescue! | DIVE STORIES

Very few lost cave divers survive. But every once in a while--usually only if Edd Sorenson is around--a lost cave diver gets rescued alive. In this episode of DIVE STORIES, world famous cave technical rescue diver Edd Sorenson talks about one of the rescue dives where he was able to make it in time to save the life of a lost cave diver at Jackson Blue Springs, in Florida.

DIVE STORIES is the new series on @BlueWorld_plus featuring famous scuba divers talking about experiences they had in the world of diving. Some are scary. Most are amazing.

If Edd would write a book about all his rescues and recoveries I would totally buy it!

At this point, Edd could describe how a hot dog is made and I’d still listen.

I literally just came here from the Dive Talk interview with Edd thinking man I want to see more Edd. What a legend... also first

[Dharmarenee]

He really should receive the Congressional Medal of Freedom.

While most people fill their heads with all the fake crap that Hollywood releases, heroes like this man are completely ignored .

[MattyCurtis]

Edd should have a Netflix series about real life rescues he's done. He's the best. I have the most respect for him and what he does.

Edd: I'm doing 100 mph
Jonathan: How far is it?
Edd: Just under a mile
🤣🤣🤣

Edd Sorenson is something else. What a guy. His amazing skill, fortitude and courage is out of this world. I love his manner and the way he talks about the rescues and diver recoveries. He really does instill confidence and has such a quiet commanding presence which is rare in my experience.

Rescuing a half out of it panicked diver in extremely tight places with no visibility & then have to calm them enough to decompress before they get out is simply amazing.

Technical Cave Diver here, if I was ever lost, Ed would be who I wish be called to rescue me!

[kurt]

Ed is an absolute uniiiit. What a job. A real hero for sure!

[woodystreeservicePNW]

It's weird how he did his first recovery because he just happened to be there. He obviously has a special gift for this

[evtyler]

This is the second video I’ve seen with Edd. There is no one on the planet that I have more respect for than this guy. He is a literal superhero! I cannot even comprehend being able to do what he does.

We need more content on Edd Sorenson's stories... he's a legend

[donnabostwick]

This is an amazing human being. Learned about him from the guys on Dive Talk. Would listen to him for hours. Incredible guy. Pays for all of his out of town rescues himself. Accepts absolutely no money.

I saw Edd on Dive Talking. Now i am in my bed, miles away from US (I'm in Romania) and watching all his stories 🤿 What a legend 💪

Edd and Mike are amazing. They risk their lives every time they dive for a rescue/recovery. I would love to hear more stories from them!

"Can you blame him?" "So you don't have to decompress with a dead guy" - Jonathan, you're killing me, I was cracking up. Love Edd's heart for rescue, it's a true testament to someone's character that will risk their life to save someone they don't know or to bring a body out. I agree he needs to write a book. Always loved his story about finding that guy alive in my home state of Tennessee (Mill Pond Cave) who had been missing for over 24 hours; he was a British diver who had been part of the Thailand soccer team rescue team. Insane story.

I see Ed, I click. He made me scared to death. He said "if you ever tell me that you can see the hud in zero biz, come dive with me. I will scare you to death."

[Jbmc]

I am not much of a praying man but ever since I heard of Ed and his amazing rescues, whenever I find myself praying for something I always say one for Ed so he may always come back out. This man is the best of the best of the greatest.
